@Serenitee_Sam So you didn't sue your landlord at all. You alerted the city to a problem and they sued him

When landlords choose to treat legal regulations as optional suggestions, the courtroom usually has a way of reminding them otherwise.
A fascinating and all-too-common dispute recently unfolded when a tenant felt forced to take their landlord to small claims court. The core issue centered around the security deposit—a frequent battleground in the rental world. Under local housing laws, landlords are strictly required to provide either a full return of the deposit or a itemized list of deductions within a rigid legal timeframe, usually between 14 to 30 days depending on the jurisdiction.
In this specific case, the landlord completely ignored the statutory deadline, holding onto the funds without providing any legal justification or communication. When confronted with the explicit text of the law, the landlord doubled down, assuming the tenant would simply walk away rather than deal with the hassle of a legal filing.
That assumption proved to be a costly mistake. The legalities in these situations are remarkably clear-cut: when a landlord fails to provide an itemized list or return the deposit within the state-mandated window, they completely forfeit their right to keep any portion of that money. In many jurisdictions, bad-faith retention of a security deposit even triggers "treble damages," meaning the court can order the landlord to pay double or triple the original deposit amount back to the tenant as a penalty.
The outcome was a total victory for accountability. The judge looked at the timeline, noted the landlord's clear failure to act within the law, and ruled entirely in favor of the tenant. The landlord was ordered to pay back the full security deposit plus court fees.
This happens everywhere, every single day, because too many property owners bank on tenants not knowing their rights. The system only functions when everyone involved actually plays by the rules—and sometimes, it takes a judge's gavel to make sure they do.

A Black teenage superhero with a gay best friend? Imagine the meltdown from the usual weirdos if Static Shock dropped today for the first time.

Yeah, that makes sense; it really feels like a deliberate tone shift from the directors. Bad Boys for Life leans into that moment where Will Smith and Martin Lawrence switch from comedy to pure intimidation, and it lands because it’s so unexpected.
That contrast is exactly what makes the scene stick with people.
English

@Joseph_Inyang Oh absolutely.
And it was deliberate on the part of the directors. The actor (whos name i forget) just knew he was going to meet Martin Lawrence and Will Smith.
As I understand it, Lawrence and Smith were basically told to just be as scary as possible. This is what we got.

@advancedflea That makes it even better; those genuine reactions hit different when the actor’s actually confused in real time. You can’t fake that kind of tension.

@LockPickingLwyr Not exactly. I look at them and think "LPL would tell people not to do this"

If it weren't for the mustache and the different hairstyle, I wouldn't believe time had passed between these 2 photos lol

@knitt1ngcryptid @SpazzticRainbow I'm fine thanks. Just one of those nights, I guess. We'll see what, if anything, the police do about her.

@SpazzticRainbow @advancedflea I’m sorry that happened to you I hope you’re okay now

This is the table she and her friends were sitting at. Which explains a lot.

Well. I just got sexually assaulted by a woman who couldn't take "no thank you", "no", "please leave me alone" and "I'm gay" as a response. Thankfully the bowling alley CCTV saw everything so caught the reason why I shoved her away.

@Long_Dragon_ It's alright. Let's see if the cops actually do anything about it.
English

@advancedflea I am so sorry you had to deal with that mate 🤧 🫂
English

@SpazzticRainbow Yup. Alcohol and a skank. Always a good combination
English

@advancedflea So sorry that happened to you. 😨 Of course alcohol was involved
